begun with a repo-copy of mac.h to mac_framework.h. sys/mac.h now
contains the userspace and user<->kernel API and definitions, with all
in-kernel interfaces moved to mac_framework.h, which is now included
across most of the kernel instead.
This change is the first step in a larger cleanup and sweep of MAC
Framework interfaces in the kernel, and will not be MFC'd.

ioctls passing integer arguments should use the _IOWINT() macro.
This fixes a lot of ioctl's not working on sparc64, most notable
being keyboard/syscons ioctls.
Full ABI compatibility is provided, with the bonus of fixing the

vnode locking.
For safe operation, add hold counters for both devfs_mount and devfs_dirent,
and DE_DOOMED flag for devfs_dirent. The facilities allow to continue after
dropping of the dm_lock, by making sure that referenced memory does not

- remove call to getmntopts(), and just pass -o options to
nmount(). This removes some confusion as to what options
msdosfs can parse, by pushing the responsibility of option parsing
to the VFS and FS specific code in the kernel.
msdosfs_vfsops.c:
- add "force" and "sync" to msdosfs_opts. They used to be specified
in mount_msdosfs.c, so move them here. It's not clear whethere these
options should be placed into global_opts in vfs_mount.c or not.

If B_NOCACHE is set the pages of vm backed buffers will be invalidated.
However clean buffers can be backed by dirty VM pages so invalidating them
can lead to data loss.
Add support for flush dirty page in the data invalidation function
of some network file systems.
This fixes data losses during vnode recycling (and other code paths
using invalbuf(*,V_SAVE,*,*)) for data written using an mmaped file.

mount(2) system call:
* Add cmount hook to fdescfs and pseudofs (and, by extension, procfs and
linprocfs). This (mostly) restores the ability to mount these
filesystems using the old mount(2) system call (see below for the
rest of the fix).
* Remove not-NULL check for the data argument from the mount(2) entry
point. Per the mount(2) man page, it is up to the individual
filesystem being mounted to verify data. Or, in the case of procfs,
etc. the filesystem is free to ignore the data parameter if it does
not use it. Enforcing data to be not-NULL in the mount(2) system call
entry point prevented passing NULL to filesystems which ignored the
data pointer value. Apparently, passing NULL was common practice
in such cases, as even our own mount_std(8) used to do it in the
pre-nmount(2) world.
All userland programs in the tree were converted to nmount(2) long ago,
but I've found at least one external program which broke due to this
(presumably unintentional) mount(2) API change. One could argue that
external programs should also be converted to nmount(2), but then there
isn't much point in keeping the mount(2) interface for backward
compatibility if it isn't backward compatible.

vn_open() on a fifo, as there will be no associated file descriptor,
and therefore the file descriptor operations cannot be modified to
point to the fifo operation set.
